South Downs?
. Yup

I love the Lancaster as well.... didn't know they were on display outside anywhere anymore. Lincolnshire is a bit far from me.
Before they invented Health & Safety, I went to an airshow at HMS Daedalus, but we were 'outside' the airfield perimeter at the end of the runway on a triangle of grass, which is next to the sea.
A Lancaster was part of the show. It circled over the Isle of Wight, over the Solent, at altitude until it was it's turn to 'display'.
Basically it did a power dive, aiming at the end of the runway, where we were standing, and then flattened out at the last minute, flying on at lowest altitude for the full length of the runway.
We all knew we were going to die - frozen in place.
Jeezus must have been in the 1980s..... I'll never forget those seconds..
